Jayajosh said:I’ve lost patience with Holden and his team selections and Bonne getting all that game time without any end product. The late substitutions are doing my head in too especially when it’s so obvious from first half performances that we’re never going to hit the target let alone score. I can see why there is a ‘love in’ for Holden though because he does look the part with his new trainers and fashionable crew necks, but for me I think he’s out of his depth.7

Here's hoping our down to earth northern say it as it is head coach was not too diplomatic with that shower of shite excuse for a Charlton team.2

anyone thinking we have three easy games coming up are going to be in for a shock. Accrington for example drew at home today to Bolton who a few weeks ago gave us a right runaround. We are also relying on two youngsters, in Leaburn and Kanu, to score our goals. One, Leaburn, should at best have been a bit part player this season whilst Kanu should really be on loan at National League level learning his trade. I don’t think we will finish any higher than we are currently and possibly a bit lower. Five points from the next three games is the minimum required, any less and we will be bang in trouble.

You know how many games it's been since we've done that.......
35.
35 times we have conceded first & then not managed to win. And it was another 30 odd before that. Once in around 70 games since we got relegated in 2020.
No surprise that when we concede first we might as well all just pack up & go home. This team, as well as many others before them, just have no fight. Helps to have strikers that can score of course. Also helps if you can get some shots on target too. None today I believe. Wont win too many matches with those sort of stats.7 -
Given the incompetent owners we’ve been subjected to since RD arrived, excluding the minor miracle Bowyer achieved in 2018/19, we’re reaping what they have sowed. Nothing will change until we get an owner that is competent. That doesn’t mean an owner with lots of money. Both RD and TS have spent money. Ignore Southall, Nimer, Farnell & Methven. They’re simply crooks or chancers.
The only thing I have to add re: the playing squad, is that we’re too nice a fan base. To me, it feels like we’ve been starved by our owners and the current product on the pitch is the equivalent of being fed gruel. We’ve been so long conditioned to accept crap football, I’ve reached the point where I can’t understand why people on here try to see the best in what is a constant stream of **** for years now.The facts don’t lie. Let’s call it how it is, even the likes of Sean Clare are crap players, but we’ve been exposed to even crapper players, that we somehow have tried to offer someone like him up as potentially part of a promotion team if they had better players around them. Remember Gilbey. The amount of comments I used to read about his potential. Morgan. The list goes on. Let’s be honest, Fraser and Blackett Taylor are crap. They are. If they weren’t crap, they wouldn’t be here. Yet these are the sorts of players that fit the ‘I think we can build a team around them, they just need better around them’
If people want to go on believing any of the current squad are capable of promotion, you’re buying your head so far in the sand you’re drowning32 -
How did Ness manage to do that in a pro game. It's like we made up how to kickoff and got feet caught unaware.0

Now it's all doom and gloom (understandably) and the list of player posters want retained for next season has shortened considerably.
For Cabbles it's none. Bit OTT, but I get the anger.
There may be one or two writing off Ness because of the error today. Bit harsh, and I'm pretty sure he'll be moving on in the summer, and not downwards.
Despite the last few games I'm still not totally down with the entire squad. I'm ok with AMB, Egbo, Ness, Leaburn and Dobson. I'd also keep Hector if that was an option. And Clare and Inniss as squad players. It's the midfield and upfront where we need a total rebuild. Players like CBT are great on their day, but frustratingly inconsistent.
I though we were ok for the first 30 minutes, but it seemed to dawn on the players around that time that despite all their efforts they'd got nowhere near creating a chance. Things started to go downhill from there.
Another games passes by without a single shot on target.
In the words of our recent glorious leader: 'That Is A Disgrace!'4 -
So so bored of it all now. Bonne is a disgrace of a footballer. We are so weal, predictable, clueless, set pieces shitSeriously when do we start talking about protests because this is horrendous every week and will only get worse next season.0

12 games without a striker scoring
Kan u Leabonne score to stop this ?0 -

My issue is that players don't want to stay at a club that's in freefall, where they regularly get booed off the pitch. So far the support has been incredible under the circumstances, but increasing the toxicity may just have a negative impact on everything.
I could be wrong of course, and I certainly understand the frustration.2 -
Not booooing hasn’t worked
lets boooo this bunch of shit1 -
We Need a Proper dedicated Owner with Money. And we need a Proper Striker who knows how to score Goals.
our Owner is an egotistical Lier who is destroying our wonderful Football Club.
we also seem to attract interest from skint fraudsters and Egotistical Conmen.
it’s time our famous Old Club had decent owners
and Players who know how to get us promotion.
I Think our new manager is the Only positive
part of our Club, apart from the Loyal suffering Fans. but unless he is backed properly he will eventually WALK 👎.0 -
FishCostaFortune said:blackpool72 said:Battled hard first half
Got done by a huge mistake straight after the second half started.
Despite not scoring in our last 4 games I still believe we will stay up.
My biggest concern is if the guitar playing Wankpuffin is still our owner next season.
Because if he is we are in for another season of abject misery.
But yep, all that does not matter, as we will be in the same position or worse next season unless something changes.
Sandguard Out Out Out !!!!

Come down here hoping for more but being honest got exactly what i expected
Just leaving for home now thinking that's me with away game's
not going to make all this effort for a team that look like they can't be arsed half the time so home games only here on in
Everyone going on about owners to blame but these players have got more in them then they are giving us that's the hardest bit to take1 -

In the words of our recent glorious leader: 'That Is A Disgrace!'I understand a few wins everyone is happy and a few defeats everyone is suicidal to an extent, but I can only speak for myself, I’ve been glass half full on this lot for a long time now, and a few wins here and there haven’t cut it.
It’s hard because it’s obvious we’re in this position because of negligent and incompetent owners. But at the same time, I can’t help but feel a certain level of disdain toward the cast of characters that have put on a Charlton shirt in the last 3 years. For me, the majority have been a disgrace8 -

Just noticed that we still have to play 5 of the 8 below us, including Morecambe twice. That’s 6 out of the last 12 games potentially being 6 pointers. If we can’t find our scoring boots soon (and to do this we need to find our hitting the target boots first) we could easily get sucked into an ugly finish to the season.5

While we currently have a points cushion, we need to pick up 2-3 wins again and pretty fast. Goals have dried up at an inconvenient time and most of the players we brought in last window are not delivering, perhaps bar Hector. I think we go for it over the next three games with a 4-4-2 and throw the kitchen sink at it. Leaburn and Kanu up too for all three games, regardless of their output, we need to gamble now and hope one or both brings a few goals.I am more concerned what is going on in the background, it remaining the same or a new owner which delivers more of the same and we are fcuked as a club.Just one another point to note, Plymouth was the first away game I have not done for a while. When in the crowd the chants toward TS come across quite loud, if any were sung yesterday, heard nothing through CTV. If we are trying to get our dissatisfaction across we are going to need to sing louder and in greater number…2

Club going nowhere fast. I don’t see any monied red and white knights riding to our rescue either. We’re a mid table third tier club saddled with massive problems of ground ownership and a stadium that’s just too expensive for a club of our stature to run. Squad is un exciting and plodding in every area. Fans are without exception demoralised to the point of despair. Up until two seasons ago I still harboured thoughts of perhaps in five or six seasons making a return to the top flight. It will take literally a miracle for that now. Been going since I was 5 years old in 1961. Never felt as despondent as I do now. The last ten years have probably done for a generation of young addicks support. The list of those culpable is unbelievably long. I’m actually quite close to not giving a fuck anymore. It’s too bloody painful watching a lifetime long friend in terminal decline.8

Oh. Did we play yesterday?
No shots on target and no goals I see. Again.
In the third division.
Fucking embarrassing having to support this joyless club. Thanks Dad!3 -
I'm with Cabbles. I actually can't believe how easy a ride this lot get from our fans compared to previous seasons.11
-
its not the players fault though really is it? i think they give their all but just aren't good enough and aren't helped by having no goal threat - most are just numb and accepting of it as the status quo now - only 3 pages on this thread after a defeat says it all - its boring and has all been said before3

Only checked the score this morning (unusual for me), say's it all really.0
